VAUGHN MONROE AND HIS ORCHESTRA
VOCAL BY VAUGHN MONROE
GOT A ROPE, GOT A HORSE,
GOT A SADDLE AND OF COURSE,
GOT A BIT FOR MY PINTO,
JUST A RIDE TO SAN JOCINTO.
GONNA RIDE, N'RIDE, N'RIDE,
N'RIDE, N' RIDE,
TIL I FIND ME JUST A PLAIN OL'
WESTERN BRIDE.
GOT MY HAT, GOT MY VEST,
GOT THE SHIRTS,
AND THEY'RE THE BEST.
GOT THE SPURS ON MY BOOTS,
GOT A GUN THAT REALLY SHOOTS.
GONNA RIDE, N'RIDE, N'RIDE,
N'RIDE, N'RIDE,
TIL I FIND ME JUST A PLAIN OL'
WESTERN BRIDE.
I'VE BEEN TO THE BIG TOWN
AND GAVE THE GIRLS A WHIRL.
I DON'T LIKE THE BIG TOWN,
THEY DON'T GOT MY KIND OF A GIRL.
GOT THE JUDGE, GOT THE RING,
GOT THE RANCH AND EVERYTHING.
GOT A TIP ON A CUTIE,
SHE'S A REAL TEXAS BEAUTY.
SO I'LL RIDE, N'RIDE, N'RIDE
THE LONE PRAIRIE.
TIL I FIND ME JUST A PLAIN OL'
WESTERN BRIDE.
TO BE, TO BE, TO BE.
I'VE BEEN TO THE BIG TOWN
TO VISIT MY OLD BOSS,
I DON'T LIKE THE BIG TOWN,
THERE'S NO PLACE TO TIE UP MY HOSS.
GOT THE HAT, GOT THE GLOVES,
ALL I NEED'S A GIRL TO LOVE.
GOT A TIP IN EL PASO,
THERE'S A GIRL I CAN WRASLE,
GONNA RIDE, 'N RIDE, 'N RIDE
THE LONE PRAIRIE,
TIL I FIND ME JUST A PLAIN OL'
WESTERN BRIDE.
TO BE, TO BE, TO BE.
